Galaxy is an open-source platform for FAIR data analysis that enables users to:
- use tools from various domains (that can be plugged into workflows) through its graphical web interface.
- run code in interactive environments (RStudio, Jupyter…) along with other tools or workflows.
- manage data by sharing and publishing results, workflows, and visualizations.
- ensure reproducibility by capturing the necessary information to repeat and understand data analyses.
The Galaxy Community is actively involved in helping the ecosystem improve and sharing scientific discoveries.
